The control system presented in this paper is part of the European Prometheus-ProLab 2 test vehicle which proposes several new significant aids to the driver for an enhanced traffic safety. The goal of this system is to detect and to provide a low-level interpretation of the movements of side-obstacles (vehicles) occurring at crossings. The system is composed of two video cameras and a real-time vision machine (Transvision) on which a specific software performing the obstacle detection and interpretation task has been implemented. The proposed system provides reliable and robust (real-time) control of standard intersections up to a distance of about 150 m.read more

Real-time tracking of moving persons by exploiting spatio-temporal image slices
Y. Ricquebourg,Patrick Bouthemy +1 more
TL;DR: An original and efficient approach to track the apparent contours of a moving articulated structure, avoiding the use of 3D models is developed, which exploits spatio-temporal XT-slices from the image sequence volume XYT, where typical trajectory patterns can be associated with articulated motion such as human walking.

Multimodal estimation of discontinuous optical flow using Markov random fields
Fabrice Heitz,Patrick Bouthemy +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that multiple constraints can provide more accurate flow estimation in a wide range of circumstances and is presented a multimodal approach to the problem of motion estimation in which the computation of visual motion is based on several complementary constraints.

Efficient parallel nonlinear multigrid relaxation algorithms for low-level vision applications
TL;DR: This research note presents an algorithmic framework which enables the full use of the large potential of data parallelism for the implementation of nonlinear multigrid relaxation methods, and combines two different levels of parallelism: parallel updating of the image sites and concurrent explorations of the configuration space of the problem.
